I have enjoyed studying in bristol. there are many opportunities and a good community here. I enjoy visiting new places and areas of the city as well as joining in new clubs and activities. I have had family and friends visit a lot as they also enjoy the city with me. I think bristol campus is sometimes difficult to get to with not a lot of transport links to the campus, mostly to the city centre and it is very expensive to live within a 25 minute walk to the campus. I think accommodation could be improved

Well-structured lessons, really good libraries/study spaces, always so much provided resource-wise that there you are never bored with the course in general. Improvements - more support for year abroad planning, difficulty in finding housing!!!! Sometimes not all the books are digitalised - very hard to access them when you need them when you're at home over the holidays writing an essay.
Interesting - but only after first year, as you actually get to choose your modules in second year, so the course became a lot more interesting and I became a lot more motivated and put more effort into my assignments since I was studying something I wanted to! Very little contact hours - has its benefits and drawbacks - gives us a lot of time for essential reading etc, but I feel like there should be much more time for French grammar and especially speaking/discussion skills in French, as there is very little of this in the actual contact hours. Essay support is very good throughout all of my modules.
Benefits - Amazing central city location - One of the cheaper accommodations Drawbacks - Management can be quite ignorant with serious issues like mould - Tip - sort out issues as soon as possible, by yourself - the longer you wait for the staff to attend and fix anything, the worse it will get!
